Old Reed Homestead
HISTORIC. INSPIRATIONAL. ENDURING.
Set just beyond the Hamlet of Honeoye the Old Reed Homestead has quietly shaped everything you’ll find at Reed Homestead.
Built in 1803—the first brick home in the township—it remains a place of history, texture, and time well kept. Sun-filled rooms, original wood floors, and seven fireplaces reflect a home that has been thoughtfully preserved, with a sense of ease that carries through each space.
Surrounded by open land and farmland, the homestead reflects the quiet rhythm of the Finger Lakes—seasonal, grounded, and enduring. Its light, materials, and atmosphere continue to inspire the pieces and perspective found in the shop.
At the Homestead
A place where light, texture, and time come together. The interiors and surrounding grounds offer a calm, natural backdrop—suited to creative work that unfolds with ease.
From early morning light across the fields to the stillness of late afternoon, the setting lends itself to imagery that feels both timeless and distinctly of this place.
Available by inquiry for small thoughtful photoshoots and editorial projects.
